I really like AMVs, and the work coming out of AKROSS Con and Big Contest alone has been extraordinary.

So here's a place we can share and talk about them.

There is an old thread for AMVs, but it's only had six posts in about the past year and a half. And the first post reads "all amvs suck" for some unapparent reason. I figured we could do better. If not a mod can delete this, no worries.

1. Inappropriate LinksLinks to sites (commercial OR personal) that have:
~ Pornographic, racist or illegal materials
~ Profit sites or referral link games. These are sites that earn the poster a profit/commission or sites that give points for incoming links.
~ Links to sites that host potentially illegal content. This would include direct downloads and streaming sites that have videos and music that were uploaded without consent of the copyright holders.
~ Advertising for profit or personal gain. Links to youtube videos that the poster has monetized, crowdfunding projects to pay a person to make a series of webisodes, or any other form of link that gives personal profit is not allowed. Links to crowdfunding sites are allowed as long as they break no other rules (scam/adult content) and are for smaller independent companies creating an actual product. Links to music or other art you create is also allowed so long as there is no purchase links/pay for hits involved.

3. Adult content of any kind has no place in the forums. (See spoiler for details).

Spoiler Alert! Click to show or hide

3.1 Nude/Naked~ Any form of nudity, regardless of whether or not the subject is covering their breasts or genitalia will not be tolerated.

3.2 Breast Exposure~ Exposure of more than 1/2 of the breast, exposure of the areola, and exposure of the nipple will not be tolerated. Fondling of the breasts (i.e. grasping the breasts either by the character or by another character) will not be tolerated either.

3.3 Genital Exposure~ No form of genital exposure will be tolerated. This includes fondling with undergarments, extremely low exposure (such that more or less 1/2 of the mons pubis is exposed) or visualizations of the genitalia beneath the underwear (where the labia majora is discernable).

3.4 Sexual Connotations~ Any picture depicting sexual undertones, such as sex, masturbation, or any of the sort will not be tolerated.

Also remember not to flame, double post, spam, etc.; edits will bump a thread just as easily.

This rules out some otherwise great AMVs, but there are plenty of others we can share.

the Monogatari thing was creepy i don't think i'm gonna watch that anime

It's not really, Monogatari is just so visually striking it's attracted many talented people who do this kind of work. It's hard to think of an AMV that reflects Monogatari well, since so much of it is based on witty character interactions.
